12. Heckmairs pioneering tour back in 1990 took
him from Oberstdorf (Germany) to Lake Garda
20 years of crossing the Alps by bike (Italy) – here at the Schlappiner Joch. It was
only a small step for him as a mountain & bike
guide – yet a giant leap for biking mankind.
How Mr Heckmair set
off the Transalp avalanche
„Everybody laughed at my idea of traversing the Alps and
developing specific gear for this project. Centurion did not.
And neither did Deuter.“ TRANSALP-PIONIER ANDI HECKMAIR
Some people create high-flying dreams to overcome a personal low. Andi Heckmair is one of them.
Back in 1988, he was lying in a hospital bed after he had crashed with his bike. He spent his time
thinking about things to do after his recovery. This is when he came up with the idea of crossing
the Alps. Yet not on foot, but on one of those solid bikes that had made their way across the ocean
from the States a few years back. Heckmair was the first guide to lead a bike expedition in the 19 90
llen hel me t.

Himalayas in 1987 from Lhasa to Kathmandu. And Centurion boss Wolfgang Renner was part of two bike pac ks. Bad
Goo d exa mp le: the
the crew.
2010...
Two years later Andi had checked numerous trails and routes and the idea of riding across the 20 YEARS LATER:
Alps became reality. In August 1990, Andi Heckmair and his friends Wolfgang Renner and Gerhard
Strittmatter got on their bikes – and 4 days, 10 passes, 315 km and 11.000 altitude meters later
they had invented the Trans Alp. And along with it the bike pack. Back then, none of the rucksacks
on the market were designed for biking. Heckmair therefore invented the "Bike1". And Deuter
produced it. In 1990, the godfather of all bike backpacks featured many, many details that other
packs still dream of today…

13. Heckmair reloaded
The 20th anniversary jubilee tour
„Bikes, equipment, technology – many things have
changed in the past 20 years. The breathtaking sce-
nery between Oberstdorf and Lake Garda remains
the same.” TRANS ALP PIONEER ANDI HECKMAIR
20 years on, everything remains different… the stiff bikes have turned into
full suspension bikes, cotton has been replaced by functional synthetics and
the "Heckmair-Route" has been followed up by hundreds of different routes
across the Alps. In 1990, three riders crossed southwards – in 2010, there
are tens of thousands. Today, bikers enjoy many conveniences: GPS tracks,
bike hotels, laundry service, luggage transportation. They have made it more
or less possible for (almost) every healthy and fit rider to cross the Alps. Still,
despite all those improvements – you still have to pedal yourself… And
The caravan moves on – upwards to the legendary Tremalzo tunnel. Looking down on the numerous turns of the old military road and the original route still promises the most spectacular and most adventurous

Oberstdorf to the Lago. The jubilee crossing was organized by Top Mountain
TWO MEMBERS OF THE JUBILEE TOUR CREW:
Tours, equipped by Deuter and Centurion and guided by the man himself –
Andi Heckmair.
By the way: What do the Heckmair route, Deuter’s "Trans Alpine" and Nutella
have in common? All three have been copied umpteen times –
yet none of the replicas has ever come close to the original.
And none ever will.
PETRA HARMANSA, RALF PHILIPP,
Hairdresser from Burgthann: Event Manager from Markdorf:
